What are Reconditioned wheels?

These are excellent take-off wheels from the original vehicles. Once we acquire them, they are inspected and tested for true roundness and balance properties. After approved, they are stripped, treated and their face is refinished to their original presentation so they would look like brand new.

Would the finish and color match my wheels?

Yes! If your other wheels still have their original factory finish. Keep in mind that the color wheel may vary a shade from yours because of the fact that it looks new in its presentation against your current weathered wheels, but the color tone matches your originals.

How do you match your color to the factory original?

We take the manufacturer’s color codes from the publications made to that fact (the same codes you have on that sticker at your vehicle’s door). We feed the code to a computerized multicolor mixer that mixes and produces the original shade of that color that the manufacturer has used.

Whatt do you do to the rims to offer them Like New?

We test all original wheels in case they need straightening or centering. All wheels undergo a surface preparation eliminating any imperfections. Next we machine or colorize and coat the face of the wheel and rim and apply a protective clear coating. Finally, we re-test after refinishing.

Where are these factory wheels from?

We purchase take-off factory wheels from our customers through a very successful rim exchange program, from distributors of OEM rims and car dealerships.  

Where these damaged wheels?

Cosmetic damage due to their natural use and wear, like curb rash, peels or strikes. We found that only 6.4% of the wheels received are out of round or may be bent in the inner drum. Being a very easy fix, the machines will take care of that problem in few minutes, before they are submitted to a very detail refinishing process. The result is a round, strong, newly resurfaced wheel that balances as intended. We do not accept cracked wheels. 

How do I know if my wheel can be repaired?

Well, it’s impossible to tell you without seeing the wheel. Cracks, bends, breaks, strikes, scratches, curb rash and most damage to your wheels can be repaired. Unfortunately structural damage, specially on the center of the wheel can’t be repaired enough to produce a safe wheel.

How long does it take to repair a wheel?

24 to 72 hours is the average turnaround time for wheel repairs. Please be aware that some special orders or uncommonly drastic repairs could take longer.

What type of wheels do you repair?

We repair almost any kind of alloy (aluminum) factory original or custom wheels. We also repair two-piece and 3-piece luxury custom rims.

How much does it cost to have my wheel repaired?

There is such a wide variety of wheel repairs that we manage the cost on a per case basis and prices vary with severity. We must see the wheel(s) before estimating the cost of repair.

Can you repair my custom wheel?

Yes, we repair any alloy factory original or custom aluminum wheels, but there is an extra charge for repairs on multiple-piece rims forged wheels or custom colors.

Can you remove the damaged wheel from my car if I drive to your location?

Of course! We will remove your damaged wheel from the car and install your spare for you. When the wheel repairs are finished we will install back your original wheel on the car.

Can you color match my wheels to the same color as my car?

Yes! We have a computerized paint mixing station that allows us to match any color.

Can you customize my wheels for a car show?

Of course! We can apply any color that you desire to the wheel. We can also do machined polish os a combination of machined/color.

We also recycle our packing materials as much as possible, while ensuring the same quality packing.

In this way we feel we contribute to the global effort in some small manner.

We can take that problem away from you by showing us your used tires so that we can give you an estimate of purchase.
